Child Care Chalkboard
March 1-31
Theme of the Month: Spring Brings New Beginnings
Child Development Center Screening
On Thursday, March 14 a team from the Child Development Center will be coming to do a Child Find Screening. For this screening they run through a questionnaire called Ages and Stages. The purpose is to see how each child is doing developmentally and whether they need to receive further services. The CDC typically only screens children ages 0-3. However, they will take older children if there are concerns. It has been the practice of Trinity Lutheran Childcare to have the CDC assess all of our 2-3 year old class to see if we are missing any needs. If you have a child that is not in this class, or is not scheduled for this day, and you would like us to have your child assessed please let us know. Or if you have any questions about this process please call and talk to Amy or Josh in the office. We will need a waiver completed in order for the CDC to assess your child.
Updated Emergency Contact Forms
Thank you to those who returned their updated forms. (We are still missing a few.) Due to the fact that the new form did not have separate spaces for pick up and emergency contact information, I did not remove any of your previous pick-up authorizations. If you feel that there may be someone on your pick up list that you want removed, please talk with your classroom teacher. They can check who is on there and then let me know any changes that need to be made. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Kids Say the Funniest Things
As one of the teachers was leaving she said "Goodbye. I'll see you tomorrow." One of the 5 year olds answered, "Bye. I'll pick on you tomorrow."
